Technical Outlook: SOL Consolidates Above Key Support as Buyers Attempt a Recovery
Solana (SOL) is trading around $76.03, consolidating after recovering from the June low near $62.83. Price has reclaimed the short-term 20 and 50 EMA, but remains below the 100 and 200 EMA, keeping the broader structure cautious.
The current range is compressed between $75.20–$75.51 support and the $76.67–$78.26 resistance cluster. A decisive breakout from this zone could determine SOL’s next major move.

From “Trade and Leave” to “Grind Tasks to Level Up”: Gate Is Coming Up with New Ways to Make Its Platform More Engaging
If traditional trading platforms are like supermarkets, where users go in, buy what they need, and leave, then an event points system is more like placing an arcade machine at the supermarket entrance: users can earn points by shopping, participating in activities, and completing tasks.
Users may originally plan to “buy and leave,” but then they notice the progress bar for their points and suddenly have a thought: “I’m already here, so why not play a little longer?”
That is t

Launching a points system is not about “farming freebies”—it turns trading into a large-scale game of progression
The launch of Gate’s event points system may appear to simply add a “Points” entry, but in reality, it is more like repackaging familiar user trading behavior: in the past, trading ended once the transaction was complete; now, trading, participating in activities, and completing tasks can all become part of accumulating points. In other words, the platform is shifting from “users come to trade” to “users come and want to complete a few more tasks.”
The most interesting aspect of th

Strong rebound after finding the bottom! Support at 4360 confirmed, with sights set on the 4450 level!
Overnight gold continued to consolidate weakly. After the Asian session opened today, it extended its downward search for a bottom, touching the key support level at 4367 before quickly stabilizing and rebounding. Bulls gradually stepped up their attack, with prices currently trading around 4415. Overall, the market is showing a pattern of “inertial decline, support stabilization, and volume-backed rebound.” The balance between bulls and bears has shifted in the short term, with the 4360 area

$$BMT 19.78% gain is just an appetizer; the real windfall comes in the next round. BTC has been moving sideways for 6 days, and the probability of a Fed rate cut in September has soared to 68%. This is when capital is most hungry, and low-cap coins are their main battlefield. BMT rose from 0.0146 to 0.0185, with 24-hour trading volume surging to $21.6 million. This volume would be massive compared with the past two weeks, indicating that whales are accumulating, not retail traders blindly speculating.

$FLOKI #AIP
Retail investors in the crypto market really have it too hard these days.
Say you buy a low-priced coin: you don't dare sell when it rises 20%, afraid it'll keep going up after you sell; you don't dare sell when it drops 10%, afraid of selling at the bottom. Every day, you watch the candlesticks and try to guess the whales' intentions, while messages in the group are impossible to verify. A single announcement from the project team can send the price soaring or plunging. After finally holding onto one, the project team suddenly unlocks tokens and dumps them, leaving you no chan

On August 17, JPMorgan raised Riot Platforms (RIOT)’s price target from $20 to $22.

$CBRS The lower wick 15 minutes ago dipped to 221 before rebounding to 252, scaring retail traders into cutting their losses while we were merely rotating positions. 24-hour trading volume reached $71 million, with the volume ratio nearly tripling. If you don’t enter now, are you waiting to be carried in above 260?
Market makers never focus on single-day gains or losses; they only look at the distribution of cost basis—the turnover around 252 now accounts for 70%, clearly the upper boundary of the accumulation zone.
The strategy is clear enough: go long on a pullback to 245–248, set a stop-los

$SKYAI has been trading sideways around 0.0754 for 6 hours, with $24 million in 24h volume. This bullish candle is the real deal. I’m betting it can touch 0.086 today; if I’m wrong, I’ll wash my hair upside down on livestream tomorrow—bring screenshots to prove me wrong.
This 9.9% rise wasn’t driven by retail traders; the share of large-order buys surged to 62%, clearly showing smart money accumulating. 0.0686 is a rock-solid floor—the market makers’ shakeout couldn’t break through it. Getting in now is like picking up cheap chips.

Shorts Got “Reverse-Launched”: Who Is the Real Force Behind SpaceX’s Explosive Rebound?
The most important thing to study about SpaceX’s rebound is not how much it rose, but why its stock suddenly began accelerating despite the market’s previously extreme concerns.
From a low of approximately $104.83 in early August, SpaceX quickly rebounded to around $140, a gain of more than 30%, with its interim high briefly approaching $150.
Behind this, one role that cannot be overlooked is that of short sellers.
During the early stages of SpaceX’s listing, the number of shares available for trading was r

Funding rate is 0.005%, OI is stable, and bid/ask depth is 0.96. Sell-side orders are slightly heavier, but the price is holding firm without pulling back.
